Subject: [PATCH 06/11] unpaged: VM_NONLINEAR VM_RESERVED
Date: Thu, 17 Nov 2005 19:36:40 +0000 (GMT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.61.0511171935030.4563@goblin.wat.veritas.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.61.0511171925290.4563@goblin.wat.veritas.com>

There's one peculiar use of VM_RESERVED which the previous patch left
behind: because VM_NONLINEAR's try_to_unmap_cluster uses vm_private_data
as a swapout cursor, but should never meet VM_RESERVED vmas, it was a
way of extending VM_NONLINEAR to VM_RESERVED vmas using vm_private_data
for some other purpose.  But that's an empty set - they don't have the
populate function required.  So just throw away those VM_RESERVED tests.

But one more interesting in rmap.c has to go too: try_to_unmap_one will
want to swap out an anonymous page from VM_RESERVED or VM_UNPAGED area.
